The name of this condition refers to the blind loop formed by part of the intestine that is bypassed.

Blind Loop Syndrome Synonyms: stasis syndrome, stagnant loop syndrome, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) syndrome. In blind loop syndrome a portion of the small intestine becomes bypassed and thus cut off from the normal flow of food. This may lead to malabsorption and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) syndrome. It may also be associated with short bowel syndrome.
